It depends on canopy structure, vegetation element optical properties and illumination conditions. FAPAR is very useful as input to a number of primary productivity models which run at the daily time step. Consequently, the product definition should correspond to the daily integrated FAPAR value that can be approached by computation of the clear sky daily integrated FAPAR values as well as the FAPAR value computed for diffuse conditions. The SENTINEL 2 FAPAR product corresponds to the instantaneous black-sky around 10:15 which is a close approximation of the daily integrated black-sky FAPAR value. The FAPAR refers only to the green parts of the canopy. 2020-03-01T00:00:00.00Z series urn:eop:VITO:TERRASCOPE_S2_FAPAR_V2 eng -84.0 -180.0 84.0 -180.0 84.0 180.0 -84.0 180.0 -84.0 -180.0 (d) the confidentiality of commercial or industrial information, where such confidentiality is provided for by national or community law to protect a legitimate economic interest, including the public interest in maintaining statistical confidentiality and tax secrecy.
